...now where in the hell did I put seretogis' troll gif? Damn, can't find it, anyways...
Look, most nations aren't that willing to step up and sort of be the leader in the world. I have great respect for Australia and New Zealand, which is why my family and I honor those who fell at Galipoli every year. However, it still remains that there are very few nations who want to stand up and be the bearer of the burden of the world. This isn't a slight to all nations, because being the leader of the world is a damn hard job and it costs a lot, and that cost isn't just in money. I can't honestly tell you why we happened upon that title, it just kind of fell into our lap on December 7, 1941 and we accepted that title and we continue to accept it.
Plus what Lebell said, it's not an official title, so no one has to recognize it, but it is still generally accepted.
